June 6/7. Viterbo. The Genoese ambassadors at the papal court report to the podestà, the captain of the people and the anciani on the progress of peace negotiations with Venice and Pisa. They report inter alia (p. 117) that, three or four days after the letter arrived about the barons who had sworn to side with the Genoese, they learnt that the barons had made fealty to the queen of Cyprus and her son (Hugh II); they understand that the queen has the whole land and all the barons obey her as has been reported to the Venetians, ‘sicut dicunt’.
